The social media giant is "actively preparing to support the transition of White House institutional Twitter accounts on January 20th, 2021," Twitter spokesperson Nick Pacilio told Politico in an email. The handover will see all existing tweets on @POTUS, as well as @FLOTUS, @VP and other official accounts, archived. The accounts will then be reset to zero tweets and transferred to the incoming Biden White House that day. The @POTUS account is largely used to retweet Trump's personal account as well as the White House and other accounts. Twitter has long come under pressure to curb the president's use of the site to spread misinformation and conspiracy theories.
